Forget the kicker. Think this only as a elf that can trample and you get realise what this can do.

@blurrymadness: Wait, what?! No buffs in white?! Are you mad (har, har), my good sir?!? White is much, much, much better than black at creature buffs, aside from black's Hatred and the like!

8 mana? My Priest of Titania doesn't break a sweat.
But I will agree this card is hardly usable on its own.

1/1 Trampler is hilarious.

6/6 Trampler for obscene mana is hilarious.

Ergo, card is hilarious and I have no problem with it.

Know what? Who cares. You guys are focused on his cost, but Defiant Elf still sees play. Throw in Coaort of Arms and Joraga Warcaller, and you're good to go. The kicker is just gravy.

Hey I ran Defiant Elf, put Alpha Status on him. This card is much better for that, gives you the kicker option late-game, or if you have a strong mana elf or something.

Defiant Elf is still good if your not hording mana elves and just using forests. Then you will almost never have 9 mana. Its still better to have the option just in case, but I like defiant elf artwork better.

I really like the idea. The "two extremes" kind of idea is cool and I'm glad they used it for one of the kicker creatures. That being said... I don't think hacking one or even two mana off the kicker cost would be outrageous. No, neither half of the average kicker card should be hyper-efficient to make up for the fact that it's versatile. Still, though....

Green

for a 1/1 with a combat ability that probably won't come up isn't much but of course, that's not all the card is about. Let's say it's generally par for the course - he can still deal a couple early points of damage, then maybe chump-block something later on, neverminding any nice tribal interactions. If you draw him late in the game... paying

for a 6/6 trampler is, again, solid but not outrageous - especially in green. You'd appreciate it in the late game even though more efficient fatties exist. But... nine mana? Now that's asking a lot. I realize he's a common, in the colour of mana ramp and just one half of a kicker c... (see all)

I run him in my Stonebrow, Krosan Hero EDH deck as a 3/3 trample attacker for Green

There are several reasons that this card is awesome:
Name: The most badass of all Lanowar elves, apparently. Still a 1/1.
Picture: These guys look like they're about to go mess someone up, despite being a 1/1
Stats: On drop elf with trample. It's not like it's going to stay a 1/1, and it means I don't have to waste another card just to give it trample.
Kicker cost: It's just there as a joke, and it's a funny joke.
